Miami Marlins 2B Dee Gordon's .645 batting average (20-for-31) during the Marlins' recent nine-game homestand is the second highest for a homestand of at least nine games since 1914. Only Barry Bonds' .684 mark (13-for-19) during a 10-game homestand in 2004 tops Gordon's recent showing.

Fantasy Tip: Gordon ($5,100, 10.2% of cap) has been everything fantasy owners could have expected and then some. While he is living on base, he hasn't exactly set the world on fire with his counting stats, as he has just 15 runs, 11 RBI and 11 stolen bases. Still, those are respectable marks, and Gordon is worth considering for usage in FantasyScore contests while hitting so well. Seasonal owners should expect regression towards Gordon's career sub-.300 batting average going forward.

San Francisco Giants 3B Pablo Sandoval has reached base in 22 straight postseason games dating to Game 4 of the 2012 National League Division Series on Oct. 12, 2012. That breaks Barry Bonds' franchise record set from 2002 to 2003.

Federal prosecutors are asking for a two-month postponement of Barry Bonds' next court date. The government was expected to announce at a Friday, June 24, hearing whether it intended to retry Bonds on three perjury charges a jury deadlocked on after a month-long trial in April, but they now want the delay. A judge was to set a sentencing date on Friday. His lawyers have filed legal papers asking that Bonds' conviction be tossed out.

Major League Baseball commissioner Bud Selig said he is not considering making changes to former OF Barry Bonds' records after he was convicted for obstruction of justice last week, according to The Associated Press. Bonds has the most career home runs (762) and holds the record for most single-season homers (73).
